Children’s Disco Cardiff

We’re really happy with the very kind words from one of our recent customers:

“Just a huge THANK YOU to Martin and Ethan for a very professional and utterly successful event in Llansannor for my daughter’s birthday this evening. We are getting so many rave reviews from those who attended about what a brilliant event Diamond Dust created that I had to take the time to post our gratitude and to unhesitatingly recommend them to anyone thinking of booking them up. Fabulous!” – David Tee, Vale of Glamorgan.

Diamond Dust, who are a team of Party and Wedding DJs who work in Swansea and Cardiff, will have achieved the Diamond DJmark Award on Need a Disco. This is the highest level award, which means we have reached or surpassed the following criteria:

Where a scheme is not in operation, members must instead meet all the other requirements of this award level. The scheme is not running for DJ’s in Cardiff and mobile discos in Swansea

All DJmark Gold Award holders have supplied a full verified postal address, a telephone landline, and domain name email address. So in the unlikely event of a problem, we know exactly where you can find them, particularly if someone is planning to book a wedding DJ in Swansea, Cardiff or anywhere else.

Health & Safety Standards are maintained means of a Method Statement which describes the procedures and processes for temporarily installing, operating and removing mobile disco equipment in venues throughout Swansea and Cardiff.

Meetings Offered as many people hiring a DJ for an important occasion such as a wedding in Swansea and Cardiff would appreciate a face-to-face meeting before the event, to meet the DJ and discuss their musical preferences and priorities for the party.

DJ in Swansea

We had a really different type of disco here. Tom and I were asked to DJ off a play list for the whole night. We did not have the specialist music, i.e. , in their case Northern Soul, and specific music not all classic chart hits of 70’s. We were give a bag full of CD’s to play from the list of music for the night. Very little songs were played from the laptop. It was mainly CDs. We’re very lucky to have profession CD player in on our system. Not many DJ do these days. It very had should the computer system ever fail. The hospitality was great. The chicken curry was exceptional!

DJ Mart at Purple Badger, Llanrhidian

DJ in Bridgend – 21st Birthday

This was a really interesting gig at Bridgend Golf Club. I was asked to play a great deal of R’n’B to mix in with the current chart music and some 60’s and 70’s for the parents. I played loads of requests – there were some songs I was not familiar with. I discovered new and different music from what I’m used to. The guests were very appreciative of the play list. The lighting and sound levels were matched to the size of the room.

DJ in Llanelli – 60th Birthday

We played many songs from the 60’s and kept having requests for Tom Jones, Abba, Cilla Black and Dusty Springfield. They liked songs that they were familiar to them in their younger years. We play a few new songs too!

The lighting was focused on to the dance floor and the walls not dazzle the guests. We kept the volume down, as in this case, as some audiences are more comfortable with this. One has also got to consider the size of the room with relation to how loud is necessary. The more people you have the greater the absorption of sound. In this case, we had a smaller audience; therefore the music was played at a lower level.

Children’s Entertainer in Llanelli

We worked as a children’s entertainer in Llanelli recently, in Llangennech Community Centre. It is large and clean with great facilities and really friendly, helpful staff. It was a lively birthday party with a great audience. We’ve worked many times in the Llanelli area including Glenalla Community Centre, Llanelli and Lakefield Community Centre.

Llangennech Childrens Party with Diamond Dust

Children’s Entertainer in Neath

In Cwmgwrach village, at an 8th birthday party, it was decided that we should have a bigger light show. We used the new backdrop that is usually used for wedding discos. We’ve worked many times, as a children’s entertainer in Neath, doing children’s parties in many community centres and including Cwmgwrach, Baglan Community Centre, Bryn Community Centre, Cwmavon Community Centre and Cimla Community Centre.

Children’s Entertainer in Newport

We’ve had a lovely time at Llwyngwair Manor Holiday, Newport in Pembrokeshire. It is a family caravan park and campsite area with amazing, beautiful surroundings and a very welcoming staff. It was amazing to find out that some of the holiday makers were from Swansea, Neath, Port Talbot and even Cardiff. Ethan ran the music and Martin provide the parachute games and the magic show. Mascot the Robot Dog visited the children and everyone had a wonderful time! Over the years, as well as being a children’s entertainer in Newport, Martin and the crew of the Diamond Dust Roadshow, have attended many venues in West and Mid Wales, including Kiln Park, Tenby and some outdoor events including Carew Airfield.
